[@reynaldo1976]

Your videos are the best in Adorama TV!

[@robtphoto]

Thanks, Gavin. So well articulated, terrific visual demo....I use hue/saturation all the time and was happy to learn something new (using the eyedropper to let photoshop tell me the true color of what's being sampled...)! Brilliant!

[@CamaroTime]

Another great, informative , easy to follow video Gavin. You always make it look so simple and like you are having loads of fun

[@zlmyxtv]

You are fantastic Gavin. Your are helping everyone who follows your channel every now and then...and I'm gonna be one of them. thanks also for posting the link on the description of those gears. and by the way, how do you call that thing that you use to match the f-stop of your lighting source with the camera, and does Adorama sell that too? kindly send/post the link. thanks bro. keep it up.

[@ZjZade]

Cool video n smoke bombs but where did you get the lantern ???!?!

[@IsmaelCancelICPhotography]

Love'it.

[@omidontop]

You're a genius!

[@salvarezav]

Thanks so much for the tips and enthusiasm!

[@johnnyrinsma]

Is smoke save for the wedding dress?

[@raipe76]

Thank you Gavin for this ! Now i know where i can get these Smoke Bombs =)

[@FrederickDunn]

+That Canon Guy They sell them on Amazon... around $11.00 each which I think is pricey.. Look up Mammoth Smoke Bombs... I use those and they are fantastic.. I get a box of 24 for around $26.00... just google them

[@EmoEmu]

Yeah that would be nice to know.

[@MyFighter2000]

link...? thx

[@spencediggz1]

google it, you'll will find it.

[@spencediggz1]

My question to you is, is it safe to use on your hand walking around, mount on the grass?

[@ennim7577]

Thanks great video...did you need permission to use the smoke grenades in the woods from the council?

[@damienmerade2388]

And at what time did you go for this shooting? And at what time do you advise me to go there? I specify that I have a very powerful 600ws as you 600ws flash.

[@HarounElloumi]

great job :)

[@TheJMCrecords]

gracias

[@yunusemregursoy5615]

graet video as always Mr. Hoey . a full frame canon and L series lens or an olympus which is better for the job in your opinion

[@GavinHoey]

yunus emre Gursoy Impossible to give a clear answer. Both have plus and minus points. Both are capable of taking great images and both are capable to taking rubbish images, it all depends on the job in hand.

[@abrahamruiz2341]

Thumbs up!!

[@peterk.1779]

Thanks Gevin ... ! best regards from Germany Peter

[@joelkumparak]

How did you have your camera tell you whats the perfect Aperture f-stop number to use in the beginning of the video?

[@senecaoak7173]

so olympus and canon which better for video and photo?

[@Iwtbaf]

Gavin Hoey is a boss!

[@ronjinwei7771]

nice. well explanation :D

[@abp3234]

Fern...How apt!

[@SatishShrestha]

nice one gavin where can we get those smoke

[@AXRXHXM]

as an amatuer, im thinking of getting the nikon d3300 what is ur perspective on that sir?? Your videos are are very educating!

[@ZjZade]

Great video n tutorial Gavin!! My question is where did you get I think that's a bird cage ???

[@bonguStyle]

Hi gavin :) Is the camera up to par with what you usually shoot?

[@GavinHoey]

bonguStyle Yep, no complaints at all :)

[@TheBiggervern]

Thanks Gavin

[@JosephEntekumeFilm]

Wow!!! How long does one smoke bomb last?

[@johnha6531]

is it possible to do photo smoke photography by yourself??

[@RetroGamerVX]

Great video thanks and I'm just starting out in Photoshop so got a nice tutorial there too :o)

[@keenanslittlesister4604]

Could I do this without a flash or is the flash needed for the smoke to show up?

[@analogbug16]

The flash is to better separate the model from the background

[@Iwtbaf]

in order to capture the sky detail he needs to make a darker shot... that makes the model impossible to see... thats why he needs the flash... no for the smoke.. or you can do this shot without the sky background so you don't need to do all the adjustments

[@SteveProcterPhotography]

nice idea :)

[@zanelli9273]

great video, Gavin! A question: if the color around the dress had changed with the settings of hue/saturation what would you have done? A new layer?

[@GavinHoey]

Zanelli Caldas Yes and then masked back the colour spill

[@Nerdyhillbilly65]

some of the stuff you have linked isn't offered anymore. you have any suggestions on what to get in those spots instead

[@MrKravmagadude]

Hi Gav, are you now shooting mirrorless only, or mixing it with your Canon gear? Great IQ overall, but Ferns face looked a tad soft? Great vid.

[@GavinHoey]

MrKravmagadude Still got my Canon gear. It's getting a bit old and very battered now, so I'm keeping an open mind about what will replace it ;)

[@AlternativeOutcast]

ty

[@HHELATAR]

what kind of trigger u use ? and light meter

[@Yosser70]

Hi Gavin. I love the idea of doing a shot like this but finding private property to let a smoke grenade off might be tricky. Those grenades kick out a hell of a lot of smoke, probably more than most situations call for. I know from your other videos you have a smoke machine, have you thought about using that outside with a battery and power inverter? Just think with a machine it'd be much more controllable and probably be able to get away with using it anywhere, within reason.

[@Godfreeman88]

What software do you use to edit pics

[@Olliesmither]

this was so good that it gave me inspiration to go out on a shoot of my own with smoke grenades it was so much fun and i would love it if anyone who saw this could check it out !!

[@kangfajar62]

is very good

[@skyrocker71]

I have a doubt...pls help Should i stay with a speelight for outside portrait or buy godox ad 360ii

[@curlyliee2099]

Which Photoeditor do you use ?

[@thegalib96]

thank you for this great tutorial. But one question please, When i tried with white smoke, my picture comes filled with smoke. how can i keep my subject sharp in smoke ?

[@MrArieldubon]

how does he get the moving smoke without being blurry?

[@shashankchetia50]

Are these smoke grenades available online?

[@avrumieklein1369]

How do I focus through the smoke?

[@IvanBoden]

Fern is standing in a field of Ferns!

[@eclairj366]

Hi Gain, which trigger system do I need for hss over 1.320 sec with Olympus em-1 ? Thank you.

[@katerabrown4822]

What year phortoahop are you using?

[@rodrigolibra2309]

Yoy are the best

[@destinygarcia2763]

what brand are the smoke bombs?

[@tisharama7383]

Do we need a permit for every place to shot a smoke bomb photography?

[@tobiakanni8948]

cool

[@SalsaDivo]

by which company were these smoke bombs made? and how long do they last more or less

[@GavinHoey]

+Franklin Liranzo The smoke bombs come from a company called Enola Gaye and last around 90 seconds

[@SalsaDivo]

Thank you so much for taking the time to respond Gavin!!! I added the items to my shopping cart already!

[@00Skyfox]

I envy you being able to be out in those woods without being swarmed by mosquitoes!

[@singsingmei]

Fern, standing with ferns. lol!

[@HoangLe-zi2xw]

where can we buy smoke bombs, are they sold by adorama.com?
